Coil of Bahamut - Solo Tank - Moogle

[Slaxxi]

Last week of getting Twintania down we were trying out new ways of doing coil this week because of boredom and wondered if all the turns could be solo tanked.

Here's our results

IF YOUR DPS IS BAD BRING MORE DPS!

Turn 1. Done it 2 weeks allready with one tank and no feeding and let the snakes merge so did not take screenshots (easy)
having virus, eye for an eye, rain of death rotation on the boss and 2 healers on one tank instead of 1 for each tank with adlo 100% up the tank wont die
Also on ADS we had bard picking up the add

Turn 2. http://i.imgur.com/NMEpnHb.jpg SCH keeps Adlo up and WHM keeps Stoneskin up, if the debuff dmg gets absorbed the tank wont get any stacks.
when the last ADS buff comes into play the boss will start doing more DMG than absorbs can handle so it starts an enrage timer with the stacks

Turn 3. yeah run.

Turn 4. http://i.imgur.com/2OZmADO.jpg tank takes everything and bard gives him ballad if he needs mana for flash. last phases bard takes knight and casters takes soldier, nuke 2nd dreadknight before 3rd spawns
-> feed last dreadknight with spiders -> win

Turn 5. http://imgur.com/33GBjUg tank picks everything and stuns dreadnight. first snakes to 50% then at second snake spawn tank uses immunity and caster LB2. Last phase bard stands at Neurolink and soaks egg dmg

I'd suggest for people who are geared to try it out. We only wiped from turns 1-4 once on turn 4 so it's really not that difficult.

this whole thing started from our server forums when we posted on the progression thread that we got twintania down and did it with a 1 tank setup. Which got replied with "why 1 tank? is your DPS really that bad?"
so just to prove a point we did the whole raid with one tank

Really nice

how well geared?

how well geared?

PLD has 6.8k hp missing 3 items if i remember right
one bard fully geared, some dps still needing 3-4 items
im missing 2 items (SCH) and WHM needs 4-5 items

we have gotten like 5 upgrades last 3 weeks because of DRG / Monk RNG drops and not having any melee. QQ

I hope this doesn't become a thing because you need to have geared tanks and people need to be wanted as tanks or else everyone will just roll dps even more than they do now.

we used 0 melee because they are sadly useless

we used 0 melee because they are sadly useless

unfortunately its true, most of them cant do a dps as good as blm, beside the meele limit break there is not much reason to bring then, plus their aoe in turn 4 is pretty weak.

would be nice if u guys had record it, o would like to watch.

Should change the title to "If your dps is bad, bring more Bard/Black Mage/Summoner" then.
